Wrong again. The numbers are in the Peshitta and the Peshitta predates Arabic and the Qur'an Anyone who tells you that Arabic alphabet and numerals are not from Syriac has no clue about both languages

Here is an example number 2 from the Peshitta

Hint: Numbers and alphabets do not drop from the sky!
